Presidential candidates Donald Trump and Kamala Harris say tougher border and law enforcement policies are the answer to the problem.

Harris ’s campaign has promised to spend $ 160bn on efforts to keep fentanyl from crossing the border.

Most Americans agree that the drug war has failed and voters need a real plan that puts health and lives first .

Marino , on the other hand, has found that it’s more politically popular to focus on immigration and drug interdiction. Hullinger is also ”unsure where the [opioid] crisis ranks among voters’ priorities”. He says voters do care about the state of Baltimore ’s drug scene, “but not always for the right reasons. Many people, for example, consider drug users public nuisances, and they demand that the city does more to clean up’ their neighborhoods.”.
